Carson Williams rode a steady wave of Facebook votes to advance to the finals. Would they be enough to make him the College Court Report Freshman of the Year?

CALGARY, Alta. — Two players entered the week, but only one would come out on top.

After five weeks of voting, Jashaun Agosto and Carson Williams found themselves in the Finals of the third annual College Court Report Freshman of the Year Fan Vote. Both players have had tremendous followings since the outset of the challenge, both of whom had left their marks in different aspects.

Supporters of Williams have left their mark on social media through the first five rounds. Each week, they have amassed the most votes via Facebook, and have been right near the top in terms of Twitter votes with each passing round.

On the flip side, Agosto has been among the top vote-getters each week in terms of votes cast through the online polls. Voters had pushed him out to an early lead each week, and that has carried him into the finals.

It was a battle of different voting methods this past week, but only one player can be crowned the 2016-17 College Court Report Freshman of the Year.

Carson Williams had been picking up steam with each passing round, but would he have enough support to advance to the finals of the Freshman of the Year Fan Vote?

CALGARY, Alta. — There may only be one game left in the 2016-17 college basketball season, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t plenty of reasons to come out and support your favourite players from across the country.

The College Court Report Fan Voted awards are winding down themselves, but not before crowning winners of their own.

After another week of voting, the Freshman of the Year field has now been trimmed to just two. Early on in the bracket-style tournament, front-runners were identified from each regional. This past week, the winners of each region advanced to the Final Four, and plenty of fans came out to show their support once again.

Across the three voting platforms, 28,933 votes were cast for the four student-athletes still alive in the battle for the title of Freshman of the Year.

It was a big week for Jashaun Agosto, as the freshman not only declared for the 2017 NBA Draft, but he was also the top vote-getter in the Elite Eight of the Freshman of the Year Fan Vote.

CALGARY, Alta. — Two Final Fours were set on the same day.

On Sunday, the North Carolina Tar Heels and South Carolina Gamecocks rounded out this year’s Final Four, joining both the Gonzaga Bulldogs and Oregon Ducks in Phoenix.

With just a handful of games left in the 2016-17 season, the end is in sight.

However, the season isn’t completely over for those programs who have played their last game. The College Court Report Freshman of the Year Fan Vote is still in full swing, and the field has been trimmed down to its own Final Four.

This past week, in the Elite Eight, fans came out in full force once again to support their favourite first-year players from across the country. Over 29,000 votes were cast in the round across all three platforms (online polls, Facebook, and Twitter).

Two players, and their respective athletic departments, attempted to make a big comeback over the weekend, but fell short in the end.
